Chapter 57 Selection Criteria

, the latest chapter is updated the fastest!

The French Football Ballon d'Or has begun to announce the nominees.

From the list of dozens of people, the top ten were finally decided.

The rankings were mixed up and no official ranking was made.

But what's interesting is that "France Football" has put out the criteria for selecting the Ballon d'Or at the bottom of the official website.

First: personal performance and collective honor.

Second: maintaining an excellent state for a long time in the career.

Once these two criteria are released, it is basically determined that it is Lucky.

Without the problem of national team honors, Lucky's club and personal performance are top-notch.

Even some media have begun to congratulate Lucky in advance.

Lucky came to the training base, and he was the first to open the door and enter the locker room as usual.

When he pushed the door in, accompanied by a "bang", confetti fluttered all over the sky.

"Congratulations, boss! You're in the top ten of the Ballon d'Or!"

"Ranked first!"

"Hahaha! Are we going to have a Ballon d'Or player?"

Giroud, Hummels, Robertson and most other Arsenal players gathered in the locker room, holding colored sticks in their hands, as if they had won the award themselves.

Lekai was also startled, but soon smiled happily.

Joy will always increase exponentially after sharing.

Everyone played in the locker room for a while, and then began to prepare for training.

"How do you feel?"

Giroud looked at Lekai curiously and asked.

The Ballon d'Or is the pinnacle of a player's personal honor, and it is also the ultimate personal honor pursued by all players.

This means that this player had the best performance in Europe last season.

Giroud was envious, but not jealous.

He knew better than anyone that Lekai deserved the Ballon d'Or.

At least this year's Ballon d'Or, no one can get involved.

Arsenal's five-time champion + Champions League best team, Premier League Player of the Season, Champions League Player of the Season, Premier League Silver Boot, Champions League Silver Boot.

With such honors, other people basically have no chance.

"It doesn't feel particularly big. I was more excited when I won the Champions League."

Lucky smiled and shrugged.

Giroud enviously said: "I don't know when I can win the Ballon d'Or."

"Hey! I haven't won the award yet, and the other candidates are also very strong." Lucky said.

Giroud: "I don't think others have a chance. If it's the World Cup or the European Cup, it's fine, but there was nothing last season, so you are the best."

Lucky smiled and didn't say anything.

When the training was over, Lucky was called to the office of Vice Chairman David Dein.

"Please sit down, our captain!"

David Dein smiled and congratulated Lucky.

Henry and Lehmann both won the Ballon d'Or during their time at Arsenal, but many of the honors of the Ballon d'Or at that time were divided in half by the World Footballer of the Year.

Its importance and uniqueness are far less than now.

Today's Ballon d'Or is the 'best one'.

At that time, the Ballon d'Or and the World Footballer of the Year could be split into two trophies and distributed to the "best two".

So, Lucky won the Ballon d'Or today, which is very exciting news for the entire Arsenal.

Yes!

They have the best player in the world in the 2018/2019 season!

"The club fully supports you to win the Ballon d'Or, and we are also using all the resources and connections that can be mobilized to support you." David Dein smiled; "Not only us, Mourinho is also using his personal connections to help you."

Lucky was surprised: "I didn't know."

"There is no need for you to know these, we are just exercising our voting rights!" David Dein blinked and smiled: "Arsene has also started to accept interviews recently, you can go and have a look, it's very interesting."

David Dein talked to Lucky about some issues about post-promotion, and let him go after finalizing the plan.

In the underground garage, Lucky started the car, turned on his mobile phone and started searching for Wenger's recent interview.

Without searching too much, there is a huge and eye-catching title.

"Wenger warns, don't vote blindly! 》

Lekai opened the relevant video and saw a serious old man pointing at the camera and accusing:

"I hope the judges of the Ballon d'Or can be more sober. In fact, this has caused a lot of jokes. I think the achievements in the process should not be counted. This will only make a person more and more advantageous."

"Just focus on one season, just look at the current performance of the player and the honors he has won, then you can find out who deserves this award the most."

Lekai was the first time that Wenger was so solemn. He changed his kind image and criticized some chaos in the selection of the Ballon d'Or in public.

Obviously, this is also to stand up for Lekai and let those dirty voting transactions be removed as much as possible.

Lekai was quite moved by this.

There are still two weeks before the announcement of the Ballon d'Or.

During this period, both Lekai and Arsenal should focus on the game.

But before that, Lekai will bring his parents over first.

Regardless of whether he can win the award or not, as a finalist, Lekai will still attend the award ceremony.

At that time, he will also take his parents to welcome this moment together.

Two weeks is neither long nor short.

During this period, Arsenal will play two games a week, which means they will play four games.

In the first week, Arsenal will face Crystal Palace at home in the 10th round of the Premier League.

There was almost no suspense. Arsenal maintained absolute control of the game and the ability to maintain rhythm. They scored two goals in 90 minutes and easily won the game.

In the League Cup that followed, Arsenal faced a tough battle.

In the League Cup quarter-finals, Arsenal and Liverpool went head-to-head.

In this game, the two sides once again entered into a fierce confrontation and various tactical targeting.

The most amazing thing about this game was the ability of the two teams to seize opportunities in the offense.

In 90 minutes, a total of 7 goals appeared.

Arsenal won Liverpool 4:3 with difficulty.

Almost in the last period of injury time, Jimenez scored a goal in a corner kick and killed Liverpool.

Arsenal won the game very hard, but this victory still made them feel extremely excited.

In the second week, Arsenal will usher in the eleventh round and the Champions League without stopping.

In the league, they also played away against Leicester City.

The performance of the Foxes is still unstable, but they can burst out some wonderful performances from time to time.

Fortunately, Arsenal encountered a low-spirited Foxes.

Especially after Vardy was injured and unable to participate, Arsenal's winning rate in the game increased a lot.

It can't be said to be particularly easy, but they still won the game 2:1.

Leicester City also scored a goal before the end of the game.

Finally, Arsenal is preparing for the group stage of the Champions League.

After a day of rest, they started to go to Instabul, Turkey, where they will play against the Turkish Super League giants, Galatasaray.

Galatasaray's home stadium is called Ali Samiyan Stadium, nicknamed "Hell".

It is known for its warm atmosphere. Fans often use torches, smoke, drums, flags and giant posters to create a magnificent scene, which puts heavy psychological pressure on the visiting team.

Famous European teams such as Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid, AC Milan, Manchester United and PSV Eindhoven also played at the Ali Samiyan Stadium.

On this day, the entire Ali Samiyan Stadium was decorated with fiery red.

Red torches!

Exciting and dense drumbeats!

The white smoke floating in the sky, mixed with the violent cheers, the fans of Galatasaray really turned this place into a hellish scene.

Of course, this is only for Arsenal.

In this environment, the psychological pressure on the players is very high.

But the gap in hard power cannot be made up by these things.

When the game started, Arsenal quickly entered the state of the game. Galatasaray could not keep up with the rhythm of Arsenal in the continuous attack and defense conversion. In the end, relying on Eriksen's cooperation with the wing, Giroud assisted to score.

Arsenal scored first, which made the Ali Samiyan Stadium fall into silence.

Arsenal took the lead, and everyone knew in this case, in which direction the game would develop.
